Title: Antigravity v2.1.4 on Windows 11: GPU crash on normal launch, and blank UI / wrong local port after workaround flags
Environment
-
App: Antigravity v2.1.4
-
OS: Windows 11 Home 25H2 (Build 10.0.26200)
-
Laptop: Dell Inspiron 15 3520
-
GPU: Intel Iris Xe Graphics
-
Updated graphics driver to: Intel Graphics Driver 32.0.101.7088
Problem summary
Antigravity does not open correctly on my Windows laptop.
Behavior without launch flags
Launching Antigravity normally causes Electron GPU-process failures and the app exits. The logs show messages like:
-
GPU process exited unexpectedly -
GPU process isn't usable. Goodbye.
Behavior with workaround launch flags
If I launch Antigravity with:
"C:\Users\yasht\AppData\Local\Programs\antigravity\Antigravity.exe" --disable-gpu-sandbox --disable-gpu --use-angle=swiftshader
then the app no longer crashes immediately, but the Antigravity window is just a blank/black screen.
I also opened the local Antigravity URL in the browser and it is blank / fails as well.
Troubleshooting already attempted
I already tried the following:
-
Deleted/renamed
%APPDATA%\Antigravityto clear Antigravity profile/cache -
Deleted cache-related folders under the Antigravity profile
-
Tried
--disable-gpu -
Tried Electron/software-rendering environment variables
-
Updated Intel Iris Xe graphics driver to 32.0.101.7088
-
Rebooted after the driver update
-
Tested Antigravity again
The issue still persists.
Important logs / findings
language_server.log
The language server appears to start successfully and listen on:
-
51986 for HTTPS (gRPC)
-
51987 for HTTP
The log ends with successful initialization, e.g.:
-
language server listening on random port at 51986 for HTTPS
-
language server listening on random port at 51987 for HTTP
-
initialized server successfully
main.log
main.log shows Antigravity auto-reloading the window to different local ports. In particular, I observed:
-
first it used a local UI URL like:
https://127.0.0.1:53227/
-
later it auto-reloaded the window to:
https://127.0.0.1:51986/
However, 51986 is the language server backend port according to language_server.log, not the frontend UI port.
This suggests Antigravity may be reloading the UI window to the language server gRPC port instead of the correct frontend app/UI port.
Browser / DevTools symptoms
When I opened the local page in the browser and checked DevTools, I saw errors such as:
-
ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED -
failed POST requests to:
/exa.language_server_pb.LanguageServerService/...
The browser page and Electron window both remain blank.
Suspected bug
It looks like there may be two related issues on Windows:
-
GPU-process crash on normal launch for this Electron build / environment
-
Incorrect window reload / routing to the language server port after using workaround flags, causing the frontend to stay blank
The most suspicious behavior is that the app reloads to https://127.0.0.1:51986/, even though that appears to be the language server backend port rather than the actual frontend UI port.
Request
Could you please check whether Antigravity v2.1.4 on Windows has:
-
a GPU startup regression with Intel Iris Xe / Electron
-
and/or a bug in the local auto-restart / port-routing logic that reloads the UI to the backend language-server port?
I can provide screenshots and the full main.log / language_server.log if needed.
